splat the cat

We have loved getting to know Splat the Cat. If you haven't had a chance to get to know Splat, you must! It is one that you and your kids will definitely enjoy reading together.
In Splat the Cat, Splat has his first day of school. He is very reluctant to go but in the end, has a great day and is very excited about returning to school the next day. The illustrations are detailed and very amusing.
In Love, Splat, Splat is making Valentine's for his whole class but has made a very special Valentine for a special cat in his class named Kitten. He is so tied up in knots about giving it to her and is discouraged when he finds out that another cat in his class, Spike, also has made a special Valentine for Kitten. Splat is just too loveable a character to not cheer him on. Again, the illustrations bring the story to life.
We don't have this story yet. I have ordered it for Christmas and am really looking forward to another Splat the Cat adventure.
